Environmental health literacy levels of nursing students
The study revealed that the environmental health literacy levels of the participants were above the moderate level. Based on these findings, it can be proposed that compulsory environment-related courses be incorporated into the nursing curriculum. Furthermore, active learning methodologies should be employed, and existing environment-related courses should be revised to encompass national and global environmental issues, environmental risks, and their potential consequences. Further studies can be conducted with the aim of enhancing environmental health literacy.
